DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to drawings. It is to be noted that implementation modes may be implemented in multiple different forms. Those of ordinary skills in the art may easily understand such a fact that implementation modes and contents may be transformed into various forms without departing from spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be construed as being only limited to the contents recorded in the following implementation modes. The embodiments in the present disclosure and features in the embodiments may be combined randomly with each other if there is no conflict.

In the specification, for convenience, wordings indicating orientations or positional relationships, such as “center”, “upper”, “lower”, “front”, “back”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “top”, “bottom”, “inside”, and “outside”, are used for describing positional relationships between constituent elements with reference to the drawings, and are merely for facilitating describing the specification and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that referred devices or elements must have particular orientations, and be constructed and operated in particular orientations. Thus, they cannot be construed as limitations on the present disclosure. The positional relationships between the constituent elements are appropriately changed according to directions in which the constituent elements are described. Therefore, they are not limited to the wordings described in the specification, which may be replaced appropriately according to situations.

In the specification, unless otherwise specified and defined explicitly, terms “mounted”, “mutually connected”, and “connection” should be understood in a broad sense. For example, a connection may be a fixed connection, or a detachable connection, or an integral connection, it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection, it may be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate, or an internal communication between two elements. Those of ordinary skills in the art may understand meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure according to situations.

In the present disclosure, “about” refers to that a boundary is defined not so strictly and numerical values in process and measurement error ranges are allowed.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a touch panel. A main structure of the touch panel of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a substrate, multiple first touch electrodes provided at intervals and multiple second touch electrodes provided at intervals on a same layer on the substrate, wherein the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes are insulated from each other. Multiple grooves are further provided on the substrate, and an orthographic projection of the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes on the substrate does not overlap with an orthographic projection of the grooves on the substrate.

In the touch panel of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the grooves are formed on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes on the substrate does not overlap with the orthographic projection of the grooves on the substrate, such that the deformation is concentrated in the grooves when the touch panel is flexibly deformed (such as stretching, rolling and folding), therefore a coupling capacitance area of a touch electrode is located in a peripheral area of a groove with smaller stretching deformation, thereby reducing change of the coupling capacitance between the touch electrodes while avoiding the touch electrodes from breaking during the flexible deformation.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a touch panel according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of a in FIG. 1 . As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , a planar structure of the touch panel of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a substrate 1, multiple first touch electrodes 2 provided at intervals and multiple second touch electrodes 3 provided at intervals on the substrate 1, wherein the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3 are insulated from each other. A coupling capacitance area is formed between a first touch electrode 2 and a second touch electrode 3. In case of touch control, a capacitance of the coupling capacitance area between the first touch control electrode 2 and the second touch control electrode 3 changes, so that an induced signal changes correspondingly, thus a touch position is determined. Among them, one of the first touch electrode 2 and the second touch electrode 3 is a Tx (driving) electrode and the other of the first touch electrode 2 and the second touch electrode 3 is an Rx (sensing) electrode, therefore they cooperate with each other to complete a touch reaction. In a specific implementation, the first touch electrode 2 may be the Tx electrode, the second touch electrode 3 may be the Rx electrode, alternatively, the second touch electrode 3 may be the Tx electrode and the first touch electrode 2 may be the Rx electrode.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , multiple grooves 4 are further provided on the substrate 1, and an orthographic projection of the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3 on the substrate 1 does not overlap with an orthographic projection of the grooves 4 on the substrate 1, that is, the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3 are traced in peripheral areas of the grooves 4. The grooves 4 are used for providing a deformation amount when the touch panel is deformed.

In this embodiment, a groove 4 may be a strip groove, wherein an extension direction of the strip groove may be the same as that of the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3, and the extension direction of the strip groove may be different from that of the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3. For example, the strip grooves include first strip grooves which have the same extension direction as the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3, and second strip grooves which have an extension direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3.

As shown in FIG. 2 , both the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3 are in a grid structure. The touch panel of the embodiment of the present disclosure further includes multiple sub-pixels 5 provided on the substrate 1, and the grid structures are provided on the sub-pixels 5. In the grid structure, each grid corresponds to one or a group of sub-pixels 5, wherein a projection of the one or the group of sub-pixels 5 on a plane where the grids are located falls into the corresponding grid, i.e. the grid surrounds the periphery of the sub-pixel 5 so as not to cover the sub-pixel 5, which are in an RBGB arrangement or pentile arrangement for example, and the shape of the grids may be changed according to the sub-pixels.

In a plane perpendicular to the substrate, a sub-pixel includes a drive structure layer provided on the substrate and a light-emitting structure layer provided on the drive structure layer. The light-emitting structure layer is used for emitting display light, and the drive structure layer is connected with the light-emitting structure layer and used for controlling and driving the light-emitting structure layer. The drive structure layer mainly includes a pixel driving circuit formed by multiple Thin Film Transistors (TFTs) and the light-emitting structure layer mainly includes an anode, a light-emitting layer, and a cathode.

In an embodiment, an encapsulation layer and a buffer layer are provided on the light-emitting structure layer in the sub-pixel, wherein a first touch electrode and a second touch electrode are provided on the encapsulation layer and the buffer layer.

In an embodiment, a surrounding dam is formed on the substrate. The surrounding dam is used for protecting a sub-pixel and preventing water and oxygen atoms from entering. The surrounding dam is a continuous dam body, which forms a groove on the substrate. Herein, silicon nitride, silicon oxide, inorganic or organic insulating materials may be used as materials for the surrounding dam.

In an embodiment, the substrate includes a sub-pixel area and a peripheral area located around a periphery of the sub-pixel area. In order to reduce resistance of the touch electrodes, adjacent first touch electrodes and/or adjacent second touch electrodes are connected in the peripheral area.

From the above description of the touch structure, it can be seen that the touch structure is in a mutual capacitance touch structure, and a principle of the touch structure for achieving touch control is that capacitance will be formed between the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes. When a finger touches the touch structure, coupling between a first touch electrode and a second touch electrode near the touch point is affected, thereby changing a capacitance value between the first touch electrode and the second touch electrode. During detection of magnitude of the mutual capacitance value, excitation signals are sequentially sent along multiple first touch electrodes, and signals are simultaneously received along all the second touch electrodes, so that capacitance values of intersection points between all the first touch electrodes and all the second touch electrodes can be obtained. Coordinates of each touch point can be calculated from data on capacitance variation quantity of the intersection points between all the first touch electrodes and all the second touch electrodes.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the touch panel according to the embodiment of the present disclosure further includes a floating electrode 6 provided on the substrate 1, wherein the floating electrode 6 is provided on a same layer as the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3, and the floating electrode 6 is insulated from the first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3. The floating electrode 6 is used for reducing the load capacitance of the touch electrodes and cathode to optimize (uniformize) display effects.

FIG. 3 is a sectional view of A-A in FIG. 1 . As shown in FIG. 3 , in a plane perpendicular to the substrate, adjacent second touch electrodes 2 or adjacent first touch electrodes 3 are electrically connected with each other by a bridge 7. The first touch electrodes 2 and the second touch electrodes 3 are located on a same side of the insulating layer 8, and the bridge 7, and the first touch electrodes 2 with the second touch electrodes 3 are provided on two sides of the insulating layer 8, respectively. With the structure of the bridge 7, the touch panel can obtain a larger amount of induction.

The technical solution of the present embodiment is further described below through a preparation process of a touch substrate according to the present embodiment. The “patterning process” mentioned in the present embodiment includes procedures such as film layer deposition, photoresist coating, mask exposure, development, etching, and photoresist stripping, and is a mature preparation process in the related art. The “photoetching process” in the present embodiment includes coating of film layer, mask exposure and development, and is a mature preparation process in the related art. The deposition may be a known process such as sputtering, evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, the coating may be a known coating process, and the etching may be a known method, which are not specifically limited here. In the description of this embodiment, it should be understood that “thin film” refers to a layer of thin film manufactured by treating a certain material on a substrate with a deposition or coating process. If a patterning process or a photoetching process is not needed for the “thin film” during the entire manufacturing process, the “thin film” may also be referred to as a “layer”. If a patterning process or a photoetching process is needed for the “thin film” during the entire manufacturing process, it is referred to as a “thin film” before the patterning process and referred to as a “layer” after the patterning process. The “layer” after the patterning process or photoetching process includes at least one “pattern”.
